We asked airgun writer Tom Gaylord for his top-5 reasons to own an AirForce Escape:

Most powerful smallbore air rifle

Accurate

Quickly fills with a hand pump

Variable power

Compact/lightweight

Are you a survivalist or prepper? The Escape air rifle was made for you! It's compact, light, accurate, very powerful and has adjustable power.

Conceptualized by TV's Ton Jones of Auction Hunters fame, the Escape air rifle makes it easy to grab & go when you need to get out of Dodge immediately! Keep your gun ready to move out by making sure you have the hand pump, pellets and gun in one place (preferably in a lightweight case or backpack made to carry rifles). Because the Escape air reservoir is small, most people can fill it quickly and easily with a hand pump.

Does not come with sights, refill clamp or device to fill the tank. If you plan to put a scope on your gun, you won't need to buy open sights. The AirForce hand pump comes with the correct fitting to fill your Escape air rifle.

Ton Jones didn't just conceive the Escape series of air rifles, he also did a good bit of the testing. Besides the velocity/energy figures shown above, here are some more figures supplied by Ton and AirForce Airguns:

Things I would have changed: A little bigger tank and a better butt stock, a little more robust

What others should know: Not back yard friendly, a little thunder stick

Things I liked: As a prepper, I wanted as much flexibility as I could get in 1 gun, so I bought a TalonP and the 24" barrel so I could use it as a small, very light carbine with over 50 fpe, or as a proper Escape with over 98 fpe. Both configurations are mind numbingly accurate, and more than powerful enough to perform any task that might arise if I find myself disastered outa shelter and food. I hasten to mention, that with luck, this fantastic air rifle will never be used off the range or out kicking around in the woods. Having survival equipment is a lot like owning a parachute- if you HAVE one and don't need it, no big deal- but if you NEED one and don't have one, chances are you will have a bad day.

Things I would have changed: I have seen this mentioned in another post but I'll second it- It's a survival rifle, it should come with sights and sling swivels; of course I solved that with a pistol laser on the bottom rail, and a Gamo gun buddy, which actually works pretty well to carry it at high port, in carbine mode and it doesn't detract from the " black rifle " looks.

What others should know: I'm disabled, and I can pump it to 3k psi. I use ( and recommend ) a Hill pump, I go slow and it's challenging but it's very doable. I don't move too well, too far or too fast but I CAN be very still for long periods, which suits the long range blind hunting that this rifle with it's ample power and mind bending accuracy is so well suited to. Of course, so is the Texan which every prepper should have on accounta what kinda air gunner wouldn't want a beast like that? It should be required at birth ... You, newborn, you like air gunning? "Goo" -- See! That's a yes! order him a Texan immediately! Don't worry, I'll test it extensively so it'll be dialed in by the time she/he is 18.

Can anyone recommend a shroud/ moderator for the 24 inch barrel? Does anyone do a shroud that has similar look and finish as the 18 inch SS or would my only option be a moderator tha attaches to end of the barrel after being threaded?

lanier from USA asked:

I have a .25 Escape. What is the bore size. Trying to find what size pellet outside o the Eunjin can be purchased or cast.

JOSE from USA asked:

How would the sound level of this rifle compare to a traditional 22 cal long rifle cartridge?

Stanley from USA:

It depends on the person your asking? Everyone has there opinion. I would say just as loud.
